McCabe H2O Plus Water Level Indicator Paste is used to gauge almost all petroleum products, including ethanol-blended gasoline and other products that are blended with ethanol/alcohol.
McCabe H2O Plus Water Level Indicator Paste is a green paste that changes colour when immersed in free water or solutions of phase seperated water & ethanol at the bottom of the tank (innage gauge), giving you a visual indication as to the depth of the water present.
Water can then be pumped out, and the test repeated until there is insufficient water to pump, at which point one of our Water-Seekers or Oilybits Water Absorbing Polymer can be used to absorb the last of it.
To Use:
- Spread a smooth, even coat of the product on the bob or gauging device where you anticipate free water to be present.
- Lower the gauging device through the petroleum product to the bottom of the tank.
- Leave for approximately ten seconds. If there is water present, the green paste will turn purple/yellow/blue contrasting to the green color above the water level.
- When reading the results, please note a straight demarcation on the gauging device.
Storage / Lifespan:
- Keep the caps tight to avoid moisture contamination.
- Store between 50 – 85 degrees F.
- No production / expiry dates are printed on the products or packaging.
- Mccabe recommend a lifespan of 10 years if stored properly with lids securely tightened. Product can exceed this lifespan.
In both the Energy Institute’s HM-28 page 26 5.1.9.1 and the IFIA Bulletin, both recommend that ‘two’ different water finding pastes are ‘initially’ used, so you may wish to select another water finding paste to use in conjunction with this paste, from our selection HERE
